Subject: Re: 2.6.25-rc2 System no longer powers off after suspend-to-disk. Screen becomes green.

I found the same poweroff issue on my T61.  It turned out to be related to the 
C state code disabling interrupts when it shouldn't iirc.  Booting 
with 'idle=poll' seems to work around the problem.

The "green screen" problem should be fixed (see the DRM git tree for details).
